The Very Little Princess: Rose's Story - Plot & Excerpts
But being a princess didn’t keep her from having a good time. In fact, Regina couldn’t remember ever having as much fun as she had with her new servant, as oddly unreliable as Rose was. Rose could come up with the most amazing adventures. One night, as Regina lay on the pillow next to Rose, bored with this silly sleeping business, she was amazed to see the girl suddenly sit up. Rose studied the fat-faced moon peering through her window. Then she got out of bed, tucked Regina into the elastic of her pajamas, and crawled out her second-floor bedroom window. Regina closed her eyes as Rose swung from the sill. “Remember,” she cried, “I break!” But Rose just caught hold of the trellis leaning against the wall and climbed down to the moon-washed grass. Once there, she held the princess high in the air and danced and danced. When she tried to climb the trellis to go back to her room, though, it broke under her weight. She had to go around to the front porch and ring the bell to get back in.
